By this time, I felt very small,And now my tears began to fall.

I quietly went and knelt by his bed;"Wake up, little one, wake up," I said.

"Are these the flowers you picked for me?"He smiled, "I found 'em, out by the tree.

I picked 'em because they're pretty like you.I knew you'd like 'em, especially the blue."

I said, "Son, I'm very sorry for the way I acted today;I shouldn't have yelled at you that way."He said, "Oh, Mom, that's okay.I love you anyway."

I said, "Son, I love you too,and I do like the flowers, especially the blue."
